1913 Lincoln Cent BU (Brown)
The year 1913 represents an early chapter in the long running Lincoln cent series. This particular copper coin, preserved in brilliant uncirculated condition with a natural brown coloration, showcases the classic design elements that have defined America's lowest denomination for generations. On the obverse, the profile of Abraham Lincoln faces right, accompanied by the inscriptions of liberty and the national motto, as well as the 1913 date. The reverse side is framed by two stylized wheat ears, which flank the central denomination of one cent and the issuing nation, the United States of America. Created by designer Victor David Brenner, this simple yet powerful imagery remains one of the most recognizable motifs in American numismatics.
